Nice! Now.... where is the paint for the Vette and Cutter? :roll:


Part of me wants more paint for the cutter, but if we're being honest here, I'd probably never choose anything other than Black Friday anyhow.


My Clipper varied between vibrant yellow and vibrant red.
I would buy the Cutter paint pack if it were available (and might have got an Annie pack, even though I dont have one at the moment..)

Or gold. A C3PO gold cutter.

I was in CZ for a while, only saw one other commander this time. Made around 1,9mil and got to drive away that capital ship

I'll be back later today.

(It must have been afraid my menacing yellow appearance) 8-)

I've been helping out a new commander find his way around Elite, he's now flying an Imperial Eagle in open, I'm so proud. :cry:

I finished with Tun today once and for all, left the system holding the rank of Admiral. Now I'll start again the Cubeo surface raids but with a more loose pace, after all I'm already a Duke but want the last two ranks too. I think I'll switch to my vette for a bit to assist with the war effort at Exioce.

Well I finally made it out to Robigo to see what all the fuss was about and try to make some coin. What a complete waste of time; got interdicted and battered about 7 times (the Asp is useless in a fight), could not dock at Robigo Mines (until I logged out and went into solo mode), picked up 2 missions worth about 5 mil, made 14 odd jumps back into the bubble with 8 tonnes of slaves, got followed by some freak NPC all the way, interdicted and bashed again by a wing of adders, then scanned the instant I disengaged from super cruise at the station - missions failed.

Out of pocket but at least I survived - wont be going back there again in a hurry, think I'll stick to exploring!

I tried robigo once, and had a similar experience... I got a ton of missions, but I had like 6 NPCs tailing me, a lot of pirates, and an utterly ridiculous amount of cops interdicting me. I wasn't able to avoid scans in my python, so I didn't make any money.

My brother absolutely swears by robigo though. He pretty much refuses to do anything else in the game, because he has kids, therefore less time to play, and thinks anything else is too short on credits per hour.

Hello everyone, just a short update on our (second) Exioce War with Crimsom Electronics.

The good news : We are up to 15.9% in influence & our foes are down to 8.6% - a difference of 7.4% which is VERY good considering we haven't even reached the 7 day marker yet.

The bad news : The CZ near Fort Lawrence seems to have disappeared, there are no CZ's anywhere in Exioce.

Please keep an eye out on the appearance of a new CZ in the system, the battlefield may have shifted just like in the first Exioce War. And please alert us if there are ANY changes in the ownership of the Sabine installation.

OOM has a pending BOOM state in Exioce, once the WAR state ends the BOOM will begin and any trade missions done for the Order will have 2x the influence effect. We"re all mystified with what's happening, my gut feel is that this isn't a bad thing but we should watch Exioce very closely for the next several hours.
